um-- well-- im gonna tell it here.
actually this is asked by @la-francaise-de-coeur !
so....hmm...it started when i was on grade 5 elementary school (2015).
i read a library book IPTEK (science and technology book) on my school library. i found a part about space...im kinda curious about space...yeah...
I go to the part "human in space". On there, i see cosmonaut Yuri gagarin, Valentina tereshkova, and astronaut Neil armstrong. i read it, and also i search them on google too. and i was like...wow...yuri gagarin and the others is pretty amazing! a space man!! great!! he is quietly cute too....after i liked yuri gagarin and valentina tereshkova, i search another cosmonauts like Gherman titov, Andran Nikolayev, Valery Bykovsky, Alexei leonov, Komarov, and more of soviet old era cosmonauts.
when i go up to grade 6, i have a smartphone and i started to post space memes and arts on my instagram. on my school, nobody is know about yuri gagarin. they are just know neil armstrong, kinda sad tbh-- but on instagram, i found an indonesian friend who like/know yuri gagarin too! i was happy! because im indonesian! and the first space otp i made is, gagarin and tereshkova.HEHAHAHAaa~
When i graduated, into middle high school (2016) i watching a tv and they are talking about muslim astronauts. and i found one muslim cosmonaut named...Musa Manarov.
im very curious about him and i go to google to read a wiki about him. from there, i started to know his crew mate, Viktor Afanasyev. viktor...he is calm, cold looking person, and cool! i see manarov and afanasyev are looking friendly together on MIR...and...i started to ship them. i was so exited to draw their fanarts. *screams*
and from that too, there is another cosmonaut named helen sharman and sergei krikalev. krikalev... he is cool! i started to like him <3 and his crewmate Volkov and Jean-Loup chretien. since 2017, i starting too search new-era cosmonauts/astronauts like Sergey Volkov, Oleg Kornienko, Soichi Noguchi, Yuri Malenchenko, Scott Kelly, Chris hadfield, Paolo Nespoli and many more...
Its been 3-4 years i liked them. The cosmonauts. Cosmonauts.
Because they’re cool and an amazing hero.

You may be cool, but you’ll never be “match rotation with a dead space station and actually dock with and salvage it” cool
Who's this @cosmo-naute
Happy birthday to Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin (March 9, 1934 – March 27, 1968), the first human in space, who would’ve turned 85 today!
“Orbiting Earth in the spaceship, I saw how beautiful our planet is. People, let us preserve and increase this beauty, not destroy it!”
“My biggest plan, my greatest dream is to do it one more time… to go to space a few more times. I want to fly there, see more, go to other planets.”

Let’s play a game: medieval torture, BDSM, or cosmonaut training?

Maaaan i already watched both of those lit films and yes, i kinda agree with anon...lol😂 but both still, looks interesting! 🌟
I hope I don’t get kicked out of the Space Fandom for saying this (hence why it’s on anon), but…I thought The Spacewalker/Время Первых was…a LOT better than Gagarin: First In Space. There I said it.
I hope I don’t get kicked out of space Tumblr for saying this, but I... haven’t seen either of these. I tried to watch Gagarin: First In Space but I got interrupted by something and just never went back to it. Oops. :(
ok so in honour of sergei krikalev’s birthday on august 27th, and also in honour of a nice dream i had involving him, I’m going to be posting photos of this iconic cosmonaut every day until he turns 61!

With Valery Bykovsky’s death last month (on the same day as Gagarin’s death), Alexei Leonov and Boris Volynov are the last two remaining cosmonauts from the Air Force Group 1 selection, the first cosmonauts team
